The Use of Straw.

The value of straw is too little
taken into account either on, or off
the farm, says the Farm, Field
and Stockman. Too many farmers
seem to act on the principle that it
should be fed to cattle. This is
the least important of its uses. Its
value as food is so slight that cat
tie fed exclusively on straw would
die about as soon as when fed on
any such substance as dead leaves
for instance, the only use of
which is to properly distend the
stomach. The feeding use of
straw, therefore, is only in con-
nection with concentrated food.
But there are other uses of the
straw of cereal grains which rem
der it an important integer in
farm economy. One OF these is
the covering of sheds. Another
use to which it may be proftably
put. when cold and winds are Sc
we're, is in forming an impervious
barrier by filing a space foot
wide between two rough walls of
sheds. These walls may he made
of any rough materials, as slabs,
poles, but near enough together to
prevent the pulling out of straw
by the animals. Thus sheds and
stables may be rendered as warm
as much more costly structures.
The use of straw is toomuch ig-
nored as a means of comfort used
as bedding for animals. Under
sheds it should be laid foot
thick, and in the Yards not less
than six inches in thickness. Thus
twill fully soak up and hold the
liquids and retain them while
spread on the land TO be plowed
under, 1t takes no more material
as bedding six inches in thickness
than less, for only the soiled por-
lions need be removed. The add
ed value to the animals in conser-
wing warmth is not generally esti-
mated.
1t not only keeps animals COM
Portable, but as manure straw is
valuable principally in proportion
to the liquid manure it has soaked
up 1t will pay to use literally in
the directions we have mentioned,
and less so as a food in winter
than as generally practiced.

For feeding cattle oats are very
valuable, but alone do not give as

due TO the fact a larger amount of

digested when fed with other food.

Reconstruction OF Ancient Perfumes.


Two ancient Egytian perfumes had
been reconstructed through the research
es Of ayoung French professor at Lyons
who has devoted himself to studying
Egytian sculpture and the plants Of the
Milo valley, BY hunting through tho
papyrus toxts and tho inscriptions on
tho walls Of the temple lavatories, ho
found tho recipes for the manufacture
OF "tasi and "kyphi." The former
was temple perfume, used to anoint
the statues Of tho Egyptian Venus.
"l<yphi" was more important, and be-
sides being used at homo for the rites Of
Isis and Scrapis, was imported into
Greece and Rome after the conquest OF
Egypt. 1t then became tho favorite
perfume among. the luxurious Greeks and
Romans, who woro anointed with
"kyphi'' after tho bath, and were
sprinkled with essence during tho
grand banquets, while sometimes it
was used to perfume the wine.

purchase the hulks of wrecks in hope
or obtaining enough out OF them to
make considerable money. But this is
very speculative business, as, in many
instances, the wreck will he broken to
pieces by the sea before anything can be
taken from 1t. A wrecker, OF Boston,
y few years ago, purchased FOR $4,000
y large ocean steamer which had been
wrecked, and In less than week the
vessel went to pieces, anu he was SlO,-
900 out OF pocket.
Another and most important part Of
Q Divers business is the rescuing Of
bodies Of those who have been drowned.
Until within a few years these bodies
wero recovered. if at all, by means Of
graphing irons, and the bodies we're
often thus badly mutilated, but nova
days diver can go down and rescue
tho body with no trouble at all. The
bodies Of the drowned IN wrecks are
generally in all manner Of positions,
and the diver often sees most horrible
things in these places. But it is not
only In the ocean that divers rescue
bodies, but in ponds and rivers, and
even wells. This branch Of the Divers
work is a most humane one, and his
endeayors should be recognized
but the greater part Of the Divers
work at present is what ia termed the
scientific branches; that Is, the repair
ing Of dams, building of sea-walls or
breakwaters, the cleaning Of steamship
bottoms, tia clearing of c!cgged propel-
lers. by improvements in the armour in
recent years, the diver can now do about
all the work under water that he can
do on land. He carries an electric light
attached to hla breast, and by 1t he is
enabled to see without difficulty in
those places where he would be unable
| to work were 1t not for the light. Divers
undoubtedly see many things which, If
they had training in science, would
help the world Of science to the solution
of many problems which now vexes it,;
but the diver becomes used to the
sights, and therefore sees nothing re-
markable In them. But many stories
published in the papers Of the sights
and experiences Of divers under water
arc Of the widest character, and have
in them no shadow Of truth, and" con-
tinued the diver to whom the reporter
was talking, II have been in tho busl-
ness some thirty-tlye years, and have
been In all kinds Of water, and never
30 much as heard Of fish attacking a
diver. But IL ono should take it into
his head to do this, 1t would be a sad
day for the diver, for flsh develops
surprising strength when he is seen In
his native element, and could walk all
round man in no time.
